"Sarkozy wrote in Diary of a Prisoner (Le journal d'un prisonnier), published on Wednesday, that his cell resembled a low-end hotel, except for the armoured door and the bars. In the 216-page book, he described an inmate relentlessly striking the bars of his cell with a piece of metal that set the tone: Welcome to hell! Sarkozy said he declined meals served in small plastic trays along with a mushy, soggy baguette their smell, he wrote, made him nauseous."
The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech and emphasizes on-the-ground reporting. The outlet cites investigations into the financials of political PACs and documentary production as examples of its work. The Independent remains accessible nationwide by not using paywalls and relies on donations from readers who can afford to support quality journalism. Nicolas Sarkozy recounts a 20-day prison stay in solitary confinement at La Sante, describing his cell as an all-grey, noisy environment and an inmate setting the tone by striking bars. He declined certain meals because of nausea and substituted dairy products and cereal bars, receiving limited visits and exercise time.
